EZ Bracelet Sizer

I guess, I can't say I dislike the product - it is more of my own preference, rather than product quality issue. It is really not a bad sizer, but I didn't expect it to be so big. I'm sure for those who don't mind it to be this big, it is really perfect.

Absolutely love having this to measure bracelets! Great buy! She did have to replace 1st one I got. Didn't stick we enough. She gladly & kindly replaced it & have not had any issues with adhesion.

I use this when I make bracelets for my Etsy shop. It is very helpful to make sure I am making the bracelets the correct size. You can't just measure how long it is with a ruler because if you are using larger beads or materials the length will need to be longer to account for the width of the beads against your wrist.This is the 2nd one I have purchased. The first one was about 4 years ago. I had to purchase another because I accidentally stepped on mine and it cracked pretty bad. This is made of plastic and comes to you flat. You will need to role it and remove the self adhesive tape to get it to stick. It stays together very well. Just don't step on it!!

First, a warning. If you are planning to use the metric measurements, don't buy this sizer. THE METRIC CONVERSIONS ARE INCORRECT! For example, they convert 7 inches to 17 centimeters, when 7 inches is really 17.78 centimeters. On the sizer, 7-1/2 inches is converted to 18 centimeters, when in reality, it should be 19 (19.05 to be exact). These are huge differences when you're measuring bracelets!Second, you must be very, very careful when assembling the sizer. The adhesive is strong, as long as you don't have to unstick and restick it while you're trying to get it lined up right. And if you don't get it lined up right, your Imperial measurements (inches) will be incorrect. What I did with mine is peel back only a small bit of the paper covering the adhesive, line everything up, and stick only that small bit at the top, leaving the paper sticking out so it can be grasped. Then, making sure the whole thing stays lined up, pull on the paper a bit more, carefully press and stick, etc. In this way, I was able to line it up correctly so I have accurate measurements.To check your accuracy: You can't use a cloth tape directly on the sizer because of the cone shape. It won't be accurate. Instead, use a piece of string or thin beading wire and wrap it around directly on the measurement line (very important to be right on the line all the way around - tape it if you have to). Where the free end meets the rest of the strand, pinch or mark the strand, then measure the bit that was wrapped around the sizer with a ruler or tape. If it's wrong and you have to realign your sizer, the adhesive won't stick as well, and you will probably want to staple or otherwise fasten at least the top and bottom for extra security once you have it correct.Mine is accurate, but it took a bit of care to ensure that. Fortunately this is a stopgap measure until I can get a real sizer (they're sorta spendy).

I use this to quickly show buyers the bracelet length vs using a ruler. Much quicker and easy to use., price is right too. I plan on reinforcing the glue because of heavy usage.

This is a great tool for measuring bracelets as they will actually fit versus the length of the cord they are on. The importance of this is because if you use a 7 inch stringing material but then add 12mm beads to it, the bracelet will not fit a 7 inch wrist, it will fit a much smaller wrist because of the thickness of the beads. The first one I received was shipped in a padded envelope and mishandled by the USPS which resulted in the plastic cracking. I contacted the seller and they quickly sent me a new one. When you receive it, it is flat, and you have to form it into a cone. I found this to be a little tricky to get it exact, but it's not impossible. It might be easier to do with someone to help. Over all, I think this is a great product.

Printing is clear, product stands upright, seems to be accurate enough. Thumbs up!

This is what you need if you make chunky bracelets because 7” isn’t always 7.” Let me explain. Your wrist is 6 1/2 inches around so by the time you add your clasp, etc. it becomes a comfortable 7” bracelet, or rather is “should,” right? If your beads are those tiny seed beads, you won’t face a problem but it you use chunkier beads you’ll find the bracelet very small because the only thing 7” long is the bracelet when it’s laid flat out. Your wrist is an oval. When you connect the clasp you will see the inside circumference is much smaller than the outside circumference because of the size of the beads themselves. By using this cone you will be able to easily know when to keep adding beads until the inside circumference is the 7” (or whatever size you might need). I’ve saved myself so much time and headaches over the years using one of these.
